| | | O WINDS that pass uncomforted | |
| Through all the peacefulness of spring, | |
| And tell the trees your sorrowing, | |
| That they must moan till ye are fled! | |
| |
| Think ye the Tyrian distance holds | 5 |
| The crystal of unquestioned sleep? | |
| That those forgetful purples keep | |
| No veiled, contentious greens and golds? | |
| |
| Half with communicated grief, | |
| Half that they are not free to pass | 10 |
| With you across the flickering grass, | |
| Mourns each vibrating bough and leaf. | |
| |
| And I, with soul disquieted, | |
| Shall find within the haunted spring | |
| No peace, till your strange sorrowing | 15 |
| Is down the Tyrian distance fled. | | | | |
